Capacity Building

Since 1987, the International Foundation for Electoral Systems (IFES) has worked with election management bodies to build internal capacity to effectively conduct transparent and credible elections. Capacity building is a long-term, continuous process that encompasses stakeholders involved in electoral and political processes. Through our global expertise, IFES seeks to build the capacity of local electoral stakeholders to ensure sustainable democracy.
